Grape seed extract history
The history of grape seed extract dates back to ancient times. Grapes have been cultivated for thousands of years for their fruit and juice, but the use of grape seeds for extracts and supplements is a relatively recent phenomenon. In ancient times, grape seeds were often thrown away or used as animal feed. However, the seeds of grapes were known to contain high levels of antioxidants, which can be beneficial to health.

The modern popularity of grape seed extract began in the 1970s, when French scientists discovered that grape seeds contain a powerful antioxidant called oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC). These antioxidants can fight free radicals and are associated with several health benefits. Since then, grape seed extract has become increasingly popular as a dietary supplement. It is used for a variety of purposes, including supporting cardiovascular health, improving skin condition, and promoting overall health and wellness.

how is grape seed extract made?
Grape seed extract is made by grinding and processing the seeds of grapes, also called pips. Here is a general description of the production process:
- The seeds are separated from the pulp and kept aside.
- The grape seeds are then dried to remove excess moisture. This can be done by letting them dry in the sun or by using special drying methods.
- After drying, the dried grape seeds are ground into a fine powder.
- The ground grape seed powder is then subjected to an extraction process to release the active ingredient, proanthocyanidins.
- The resulting extract can be further concentrated by evaporation or distillation, depending on the desired end product.
- The concentrated extract is subjected to purification processes to remove impurities and improve quality.
Grape seed extract and other supplements
Grape seed extract can also be used in combination with other nutritional supplements, where synergistic effects may occur. However, it is important to make the correct adjustment and consult with a doctor.
Combination with other antioxidants
Grape seed extract can be combined well with other antioxidants, such as vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium and coenzyme Q10. This combination can further strengthen overall antioxidant protection in the body and optimize health benefits.
Synergistic effects with other nutritional supplements
In addition to antioxidants, grape seed extract may also work in synergy with other nutritional supplements, such as omega-3 fatty acids, probiotics and herbs with anti-inflammatory properties. These combinations can further enhance the positive effects on cardiovascular health, the immune system and other aspects of health.
